Oh but that part is as ready and as easy as "cygport monotone-0.44 all"
the main show-stopper for a cygwin monotone 0.44+ package is the lack of
lua and botan as packages.

The first exists unofficially (but an OFFICIAL package is needed for all
dependencies of every official package) and the latter doesn't exist yet
(though I have an half-ready one sitting in my $HOME and I'm willing to
maintain it as an official package).

I do perfectly agree. I'm also a big user of my own packages.
(or I wouldn't maintain them in the first place, probably)
